Another Special Life in Christ
These testimony lives are not stories of "role models". Jesus is the
role model!
These are lives wonderfully touched & changed by Jesus!

Dravecky:
Dave and Jan
Dravecky were first thrust into the public spotlight in the late 1980’s when Dave’s career took off
as a major league baseball pitcher, a "southpaw" for the San Francisco Giants. Shortly after
realizing his lifelong dream, Dave was diagnosed with a soft tissue cancer in the deltoid muscle of
his pitching arm. The next years were a whirlwind of surgery, radiation, pain and depression, all
in the glaring light of the media. Eventually, Dave’s arm was amputated to stop the spread of the
cancer and save his life. Through it all, Dave and Jan’s faith in God and the love He gave them
through others provided the anchor they needed in the midst of their storm. Dave and Jan founded
the Outreach of Hope in 1991 in response to the thousands of letters and requests they received
from hurting people encouraged by the Dravecky’s faith. The overwhelming needs expressed in these
heartfelt letters formed the basis of the ministry offered by the Outreach of Hope which became Endurance.
